Question Customising uEFI boot menu to include kickstart parameter


Hi

I am producing a remastered RHEL 6.5 which contains a custom kickstart. I have got the ISO to boot using the kickstart from a BIOS boot by making the standard modifications to isolinux.cfg (i.e. "append initrd=initrd.img ks=cdrom:/ks-x86_64.cfg"). However I cannot locate the correct file(s) to perform the same customisation when I boot to UEFI. I can enter the "ks=cdrom:/ks-x86_64.cfg" parameter to the UEFI anaconda boot menu by editing the kernel parameters but I cannot find a way of customising it like you can with editing isolinux.cfg.

Does anyone know how to edit the anaconda boot parameters for UEFI?

Many thanks

Aidan

Sorry I don't know how to edit anaconda for those parameters for uefi.
Maybe a member running Red Hat or CentOS will chime in.

I looked on my system and I found EFI/Boot/Boot/X64.conf and there was also a 'fallback.efi' file as well.
You might have to write a script but I am not sure.
Try here it might help-
